Hi

As the title says I'm looking for RC18T Battery Pack Suggestions. The one and only battery pack I had is dead.
 
If you are looking for the exact Nim pack replacement??
It has a unique cell orientation. (6 Sub-C cells side by side) Will be a tough one. TA discontinued the model and support for the 18T. They do this all the time with much of their stuff. Why I stopped being a Fanboy of TA. Always was years past. Good luck finding parts for that 18T.:rolleyes: I had always eyed the 18T, but refused to buy another TA rig. I have enough of TA rigs that became discontinued only a year or two later with no more parts support.(n) They end up on my shelf sitting there broken.
I would consider a 2s Lipo equivalent battery. (7.4volts)
I believe the dimensions of the Stock Nim pack was 144mm x 25mm.
Not 100% sure. Measure what you have there first. And shop around. I would not bother with Nim packs and the stock charger anymore. Just me. But that's your call.
Looks like the below lipo pack would work/fit.
Double check the size of your old nimpack and battery Tray first. You should get lucky enough to find the right fit. I feel Lipos would be cheaper than Nim packs. Lipos will run longer and have much better driving performance. My spin. You may find a pack(s) with different connectors than what you have. This should not be any deal breaker. Just swap out to the correct connector for your ESC. Or upgrade the connectors to better ones altogether.
What I would do.

Hi

Thank you for the link, unfortunately there to big, the RC18's packs are 32mm W x 104mm L x 18mm H. But they look to be the right size for my Raider. All of my NI-MH packs have died, letting them sit for a couple of years will do that to them.
